DAY TWO

BOUNDARY BREAKERS – Saturday June 3

Day Two presents a panel of undeniably cool girls that have carved out undeniably cool creative careers, their own way. We ask how they have achieved what so many seek, and what they have done to make sure they retain their distinct individuality in an environment where creatives, companies and brands are more connected than ever before.
